Conclusion.
Ultimately, we still don’t understand divine power at all, and what is being discussed here is the forefront of the world.
Although it was a somewhat forceful (?) conclusion, it couldn’t be helped as it was the fact.
The mere fact that magic power and holy power are forces dependent on the body, while divine power is dependent on the soul, was previously unknown.
Considering that, it is not an exaggeration.
In the first place, the mere existence of beings capable of developing divine tools provides a significant advantage for research.
However, the purpose of Kousuke and the others gathering to talk is solely whether divine power can be used practically.
By the way, at this point, everyone had become able to perform the divine power ball (?) game that Nana and Wanri and the others used to play with divine power.
Perhaps because of that, everyone has the skill
But what can be done with that
So far, the only applications have been Kousuke and Isunani’s divine tool creation, and Silvia’s divine union with Eris.
As no good ideas came to mind and the conversation began to resemble casual chat, Kousuke suddenly thought of something.
“……Huh? If we can communicate with divine tools, why can’t we communicate without them?”
At Kousuke’s mumbling, everyone stopped talking.
“Well, it’s not that we can’t, but we’ve never actually tried it, have we?”
“That’s true, but besides that, we don’t really understand how those divine tools work, do we?”
“I also just use divine power to activate the divine tools when I perform a divine union.”
Kousuke nodded in understanding at everyone’s opinions.
Come to think of it, he had taught them how to use divine tools, but had never explained their inner workings.
Kousuke decided to briefly explain the divine tools he had easily (which was already strange) created for divine unions.
“Simply put, they search for the other party using divine power, connect a divine power path, and fix it, something like that?”
In a word, it’s like a string telephone using divine power.
Divine power acts as the string, and the divine tool is the object attached to both ends (e.g., a paper cup).
The oracle of gods that does not use divine tools can be directed to an unspecified large number of people or a specific individual, but it is thought that they are searching for and talking to the target under specific conditions. This is not confirmed, however.
“….So, if we could substitute our bodies or something instead of those divine tools, could we do something like telepathy?”
“Well, theoretically, yes.”
Telepathy is a technique that allows those with high-level magic or holy power to communicate even over long distances.
Since only a limited number of people can use it, its application is also limited.
“…Being able to use telepathy would be convenient.”
“And since we’re using divine power, it wouldn’t be limited by location either.”
It’s a plausible idea, considering it even reaches the [Evergreen Garden], the abode of gods.
For the members scattered across different floors, if they can communicate using divine power, it would undoubtedly be extremely convenient.
All members exchanged glances and reached an agreement, and a temporary goal was decided.
♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦♢♦
Goal: To be able to communicate using divine power.
Although it’s written simply as text, it took a considerable amount of time and effort to put it into practice.
First, we had to connect with each other using divine power, but unlike magic or holy power, connecting our forces was difficult.
Kousuke was inadvertently performing this task when he was making divine tools to give to Silvia in the temple, but he was able to do so because he had learned the method in the [Evergreen Garden].
Since he existed only as a soul in the [Evergreen Garden], there were no other superfluous elements, allowing him to learn it in a short period. Of course, Kousuke, who actually struggled, likely disagrees.
Especially with a physical body, the presence of magic or holy power causes extraneous forces to mix in, making it difficult to connect properly.
Conversely, Kousuke, who could naturally perform this task, was able to connect with everyone using divine power.
Therefore, Kousuke and one other person (on a rotating basis) would conduct further experiments, while the remaining members would train in connecting divine power.
The first person to be connected with was Peach.
For some reason, there was a lot of squabbling over who would go first, and it ended up being decided by rock-paper-scissors, which is a side note.
At the time, Kousuke wondered why, but the answer was that connecting with divine power feels very good.
He didn’t understand the reasoning, but it seemed to have a very relaxing effect when their divine powers were connected.
Kousuke himself didn’t feel that kind of effect, but the women experienced it significantly.
This is also something that requires further investigation.
More importantly, the current issue is whether they can communicate while their divine powers are connected.
While they could refer to the communication function developed by Isunani, humans simply don’t have the organs for such a function, so they had to think from scratch.
The human body can produce sound and can hear with its ears.
However, the problem is how to transfer that voice (sound) into divine power.
What Kousuke thought of was the time he first performed a divine union with Asura and Eris in the temple.
In that case, they had communicated without using divine tools.
They communicated not by speaking aloud, but simply by thinking in their minds.
However, before that, they were meditating (lol) and concentrating.
This is because they were using divine power, the power of the soul.
The hypothesis was that if they could convey thoughts to the soul without using the physical voice, they might be able to receive those voices as well.
However, it wouldn’t be that easy.
The reason Kousuke was able to communicate so easily with Asura and Eris in the [Evergreen Garden] was due to his training there.
It was impossible for the members in the current world to easily master it, and ultimately, it came down to practice.
The method of practice is based on what Kousuke received in the [Evergreen Garden].
Unlike the [Evergreen Garden], where there were no physical constraints, here (in the current world?), there are physical constraints, so it was not easy to master.
Ultimately, it took several days for the women to be able to communicate with Kousuke.
This was still an astonishingly fast pace.
It was possible because of the assistance of Kousuke, who was beyond normal, and the presence of masters of magic and holy power, excluding Peach.
However, if Shurein were to say it, without Kousuke’s assistance, they would not have been able to master it so quickly in the first place.
One way or another, they somehow managed to achieve communication using divine power (without tools), and now they decided to investigate its range of application.
To put it bluntly, it became an extremely important power for them to use in the tower.
It was within their expectations, as divine power in its concentrated form could pass through walls, but the walls of the management layer were not obstacles at all, and they could communicate even when on different floors.
They also went outside the tower to test it, and that was also accomplished with ease.
Frankly, it’s not just convenient; it’s incomparably so.
This communication method, named divine power telepathy, will undoubtedly play a crucial role in the future operation of the tower.
Kousuke can connect with the other members without any problem, so as long as the other members can connect their divine power, they will be able to converse with each other no matter where they are.
It goes without saying that the members rushed to learn it.
By the way… it’s a side note that the two cheat characters, Kouhi and Mitsuki, easily mastered divine power telepathy.
Behind the Scenes.
One of the reasons Kousuke and the women were able to connect so easily is the setting that their nightly activities played a role.
Ultimately, the connection of divine power is related to the connection of souls. However, there is no way to verify this, so no one noticed.
Peach, who is more knowledgeable in that area, might be the first to notice lol.
